METHOD FOR IMPROVING MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF PVC-WOOD AND OTHER NATURAL FIBER COMPOSITES USING PVC STABILIZERS

摘要

Disclosed herein is a process for improving mechanical and chemical properties of a composite of poly(vinyl chloride) and at least one natural fiber comprising adding to said composite at least one heat stabilizer selected from the group consisting of: A) alkyltin reverse esters-sulfides; B) alkyltin alkyl maleates; and C) complex mixtures of calcium and/or zinc carboxylates/acetylacetonates.
